i believe the valve stems need to be ground down a smidge, 130lb springs, new retainers, and there is something else that I cant think of that should be done to it. Oh I think the rocker pedistals need to be machined down too, I think thats it, Personally id just run an xp if you are running stock heads. We had a guy in my area run worked heads with the s3 and he grenaded his motor, no wait he nucleared his motor. The work to the heads failed, I dunno if it was the work or the parts failing, but Id rather run some Intense heads wit their bigger cams

might not be a bad idea to pick up new valve seals while you're at it. those 130 lb springs are not going to play nicely with the stock ones...

The valve guides need milled down to accomodate ~ .600" of valve lift. And you'll need strong enough springs to handle a pretty agressive cam grind.

the reason i ask, there is no ****in way i can afford to pay 2k for heads when i just spent 500 on mine not to long ago. and they are 97s so i cant even use them as cores.

well...

take them to a machine shop and see what can be done. it might not be as expensive as you think.
